Thanks John, that's a Desert Island Disc - although I'd be hard pushed to choose between the perfection of the Everly's and the homely simplicity of Carole's original demo which you can buy for 45p plus p&p here:

And, since Andy started with The Temptations, here is David Ruffin singing Tony Joe White's 'Rainy Night In Georgia'. I read that it was recorded in 1970 but Motown never released it. Brook Benton's version was released that same year. I like how David Ruffin quietly and without hurry or drama grabs ahold of the song.
